Safiery CANbus Alternator Controller

$SCO: - Override features Overrides the DIP Switches for Charge Profile and Battery Capacity selection, as well as other capabilities of the device. This command also allows the selection of auto detect for system voltage (12v, 24v, 48v), or forcing a fixed defined target system voltage.

$SCO: <CP_Index>, <BC_Index >, <SV_Override>, <Lockout>, <Feature-IN>, <Feature-OUT>

CP Index:

<WHOLE NUMBER ( 0  8 )> Which Charge profile entry should be used? (1..8). Set = 0 to use

DIP switches for selection.

BC Index: < FLOATING POINT NUMBER ( 0.0  ±10.0 )> Which Battery Capacity Multiplier entry should be used against normalized 500Ah battery? (1..4). Set = 0.00 to restore selection to DIP Switch value. It is possible to also receive the battery capacity via CAN. In normal cases the BC Index will be overridden by a CAN received value. However, if you do not wish the BC Index to be overridden by CAN received values; configure BC Index with a negative value. The multiplier will have the same effect, the sign of the value only indicates if the BC Index should also override any CAN received value or not. Positive = yes, allow a CAN supplied value to override; negative = no, ignore both the DIP switch and any value is supplied via the CAN.

SV Override: < FLOATING POINT NUMBER ( 0.0  4.5 )> Enable (by setting = 0.0) or override the auto system voltage detection feature by defining the SV multiplier to be used. Though Auto detect is a nice feature, being able to fix the system voltage can improve reliability and allow support for battery voltages which are not a whole number multiple of the ‘12v’ normalized battery used in the CPE tables . The following table shows some common values which may be used:
